Think I have some pretty unpopular opinions:
I don’t see how Ned being one of Alex’s bosses could’ve been been used to pressure her to stay in the relationship. Eugene, Zach and Keith would have to also be on board with firing her if that’s what hypothetically she was afraid of. I think people are thinking of a traditional office setting - not where 4 guys basically split the company four ways. Also Alex’s position as a producer means she’s basically in charge of everyone else who is not a Try Guy or a fellow producer. Like she herself has power in the company and is 31. People keep trying to paint her as a 20-year-old intern. I think what they did was morally wrong - but not something that someone should be forced to leave a company they helped built for.
The whole theory of Ned getting his friend to write the SNL skit that way is bs. SNL is known for being off the mark pop culture-wise and there are 3 other credited writers on the skit. One of them is Bowen Yang, Eugene’s friend.
